- Somebody will need to clear a copyvio bot notification on my first edit here.
- Done, with thanks to User:Madman. -SusanLesch (talk) 22:59, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
New enough, long enough, neutrally written, copyvio check finds none, hook is interesting and cited. The citation to the article in the Journal of Japanese Studies can be accepted AGF, the link to amazon.com clearly isn't a reliable source. (I also think the hook would be improved by saying "...was called in the Journal of Japanese Studies...", but that is just my preference.) Moonraker (talk) 16:59, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
- Moonraker, thank you for your review. (Sorry to be confusing. I included an Amazon copy in a compound ref because it can be read by anyone, followed by the real citation.) ALT1 is okay with me. -SusanLesch (talk) 17:10, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
